Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Grant Hill [White Refractor] #33 sells for $61.86 against $13.75 raw: a $48.11 spread, 4.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($55.50) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
